Cambodia Gambling Dens
There is an interesting background to the Cambodia gambling dens that lie just across the border from neighboring Thailand, in which gambling hall gambling is not legal. Eight gambling halls are established in a relatively tiny space in the metropolis of Poipet in Cambodia. This collection of Cambodia casinos is in a prime location, a 3 to four hour travel from Bangkok and Macao, the 2 most popular gambling centers in Asia. Cambodia gambling dens do a thriving business with Thai laborers and guests from Malaysia, Japan, South Korea, and Singapore, with only very few Westerners. The astonishing income accrued from the gambling dens ranges from seven and a half million dollars to more than 12.5 million dollars, and there are a couple of restrictions constraints for gambling hall ownership. Ownership is required to be mostly Thai; however, investment sources are vague. The borders are formally open from 0900 to 17:00, and although visas are allegedly needed to cross, there are means around this, as is correct of many borders.
The original Cambodia gambling dens opened in Phnom Penh in the mid nineties, but were required to close in the late nineties, leaving only 1 gambling den in the capital, the Naga Resort. The Naga, a docked boat gambling hall, features one hundred and fifty one armed bandits and sixty gaming tables. The Naga gambling hall is open 24 hours with forty two tables of mini-punto banco, 4 tables of 21, ten of roulette, 2 of Caribbean Stud Poker, and one each of Pai-Gow and Tai-Sai.
The 1st gambling hall in Poipet, the Holiday Palace, premiered in the late nineties and the Golden Crown before long opened. There are one hundred and fifty one armed bandits and five table games at the Golden Crown and 104 slot machines and 68 gaming tables at the Holiday Palace. The newest Holiday Palace Casino and Resort contains 300 one armed bandits and 70 gaming tables and the Princess Hotel and Casino, also in Poipet, has one hundred and sixty six slot machines and ninety six table games, including 87 punto banco (the most dominant game), Fan Tan, and Pai Gow. Additionally, there is the Casino Tropicana, with one hundred and thirty five slot machines and 66 of the familiar tables, as well as one table of Casino Stud Poker. Another one of the 8 casinos in Poipet, also in a motel, is the Princess Casino with 166 slot machines and 97 games. The Star Vegas Casino is part of an all-around vacation and hotel compound that contains numerous amenities accompanying the casino, which provides ten thousand square feet of 130 slot machine games and 88 gaming tables.
